Sinking Concrete Stairs Get Lifted in Brooklyn Park, MN

A homeowner from Brooklyn Park, MN, was growing more frustrated over a sinking concrete slab leading up to her front door. Not wanting anyone to take an unnecessary tumble, she decided to begin the search for a company that could help. After finding our website through her searches, she decided to call us and take advantage of our FREE estimates, and a few weeks later, our Design Specialist, Nate B, headed out to the home. 

Once Nate finished his walkthrough, he met with the homeowner to give her his recommendations. He began by saying we could fix the sinking slab using our PolyLevel solution. PolyLevel is a polyurethane foam that expands when injected beneath concrete slabs, filling voids left by soil erosion, and slowly lifting the slab back into place. Nate finished by saying that our process is completed with the application of our NexusPro. A silicone-based sealant, this product gets applied to all cracks and joints in the concrete to ensure no water can get below the slab. The homeowner agreed and work began a few weeks later. 

On the day of the installation, our Foreman, Troy, was able to lift the sinking stoop back to meet the adjoining concrete stairs, successfully eliminating any trip hazards. Now our customer can enjoy her front entrance just a bit more!

Wet Basement Restored in Coon Rapids, MN

Mitch J. in Coon Rapids, MN had water seeping into his basement. He expressed his frustration about the problem in his basement to a friend and that friend recommended that he call American Waterworks to waterproof his basement. Mitch decided to call us for a free estimate, so we sent one of our Design Specialists, Jeremy Radtke, to his home to inspect the problem and design a solution. Jeremy worked closely with Mitch to develop a plan that was best fitting for his needs. Mitch was pleased with the proposal that Jeremy presented to him, so he scheduled a date for us to waterproof his basement.

Our production team started the installation by removing the concrete around the perimeter of Mitch’s basement, and the concrete where they needed to install the new sump pump. Then, they laid our WaterGuard drainage system around the perimeter and a feed line through the middle of the basement floor. The WaterGuard and feed line properly drain water to the sump pump, instead of the water pooling in his basement. Once the water reaches the sump pump, it is pushed through the discharge line and expelled from the home. Mitch was very pleased with the work that the crew did! He is glad he chose to invest in his home and protect his basement for the long-term.

Water Issues Gone in Minneapolis, MN

A homeowner in Minneapolis, MN became alarmed when he found an area of his basement carpet was wet. He inspected along the other walls of the basement and found similar issues, water leaking through and coming in at the base of the walls. Not wanting to wait any longer for the problems to worsen, he called American Waterworks and signed up for a FREE no-obligation estimate with one of our experts. We sent over Design Specialist Nick Skillman to the home to check out the basement and see what recommendations he could come up with. Nick assured the homeowner that something could be done to get rid of the current water problems and prevent future ones from happening. He explained that our WaterGuard system would be the best solution because it intercepts water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely. The homeowner agreed to the plans and the project began. Foreman Jeromy Anderson and his crew arrived at the site to carry out the installation of the WaterGuard and ensured everything was working properly before leaving. The homeowner was thrilled to be rid of the water issues and thankful for our work.

Basement Gets Waterproofed in Minneapolis, MN

In Minneapolis, MN a homeowner was concerned when she was in her basement space and noticed a good amount of water damage on the concrete floors. She was relieved that the basement was unfinished and didn't damage the space too much, but still wanted to prevent the issue from growing over time. She found the American Waterworks website in her search of waterproofing solutions and was interested in our FREE estimate services. She signed up for her own and once we received the request, sent over Design Specialist Dylan Woitas. Dylan carried out a detailed inspection of the basement space and suggested that to stop the current water intake for good, installing a WaterGuard system would be the best solution. The homeowner trusted his judgement and agreed to move forward with the process. When Foreman Arturo Mares and his crew arrived at the site, they made sure to talk the homeowner through the project and answer any questions before starting. Then, they installed the WaterGuard system, which works by intercepting water at the perimeter of the basement and sends it away safely to the sump pump. The homeowner was pleased with the results and thanked our crew for their hard work.
